Protein tyrosine kinase but not protein kinase C inhibition blocks receptor induced alveolar macrophage activation by K. Pollock, M. T. Withnall

“…The selective enzyme inhibitors genistein and Ro 31-8220 were used to assess the importance of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) and protein kinase C (PKC), respectively, in N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) induced generation of superoxide anion and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) in guinea-pig alveolar macrophages (AM). Genistein (3–100 μM) dose dependently inhibited FMLP (3 nM) induced superoxide generation in non-primed AM and TXB2 release in non-primed or in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (10 ng/ml) primed AM to a level > 80% but had litle effect up to 100 μM on phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) (10 nM) induced superoxide release. …”

IL-21 Modulates Release of Proinflammatory Cytokines in LPS-Stimulated Macrophages through Distinct Signaling Pathways by Su-nan Li, Wei Wang, Shou-peng Fu, Jian-fa Wang, Hong-mei Liu, Shan-shan Xie, Bing-run Liu, Yang Li, Qing-kang Lv, Zhi-qiang Li, Wen-jing Xue, Bing-xu Huang, Wei Chen, Ju-xiong Liu

“…The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of IL-21 on LPS-induced mouse peritoneal macrophages. The results showed that IL-21 significantly inhibited LPS-induced mRNA expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 in macrophages, but not of IFN-γ, IL-10, CCL5, or CXCL2. …”
